#Regression

Due to a recent discussion with colleagues on whether and when to use (), I wrote a blog post comparing LMM to other approaches using simulated data. I thought, it may also be useful for others working with hierarchical data structures in and beyond.

Line plot of simulated neural responses versus stimulus strength for three subjects, with residuals and group comparisons.Group specific slope comparison in an LMM friendly regime with many groups and few observations per group. ANCOVA interaction slope estimates scatter widely, while LMM BLUP slopes are pulled toward the population mean.

@linuxfoundation can you please NOT advertise "#AI" bullshit of any kind?

Instead, how about you stop the #Regression of #Quality and #Compatibility with #Linux on the #Desktop and invest more time and energy to ease tze #Transision of #Windows users into Linux?

  • Cuz right now that would guarantee you a >90% market share by 2030 with minimal effort.

Seriously, why ain't you seizing that opportunity, #Linux?

RE: mastodon.ie/@thebeeguy/1159850

And we’re back…

Took a break to go walkabout and get some perspective… but mostly just got rained on…so mostly just figured out that the rain’s different here now…yeah things are changing and it doesn’t feel good, things, good things…good things we took for granted…things we never should

Anyhow…

Translation: less humanities, less diversity, more homogeneity. What could go wrong! Shame on you, Utah legislature.

utahnewsdispatch.com/2026/01/2

After several years of reforms to the Utah System of Higher Education, state leaders and presidents of public colleges and universities signed a resolution committing to keeping higher education affordable, accessible and “focused on impactful outcomes.” 

With the resolution, higher education and state leaders vowed to align higher education with the best interest of students and the state.

“We remain dedicated to research and teaching that fosters academic excellence, explores new ideas, respects differing viewpoints, drives economic growth, and discovers solutions to our most complex problems,” the resolution reads.

#Steuersystem wann wird #arbeit endlich gleich wie #vermögen #besteuert ?

#SPD sie Doppelmoralischer drecks Kerl:in
#CDU verschisener faschofischer

Das ist keine #regression Sondern ein raubzug der überreichen

Und blind vom #bestechungsgeld eurer »freunde«
Steuert die ganze weld in die katastrophe

Wird zeit für #revolution

""The #Linux rule for regressions is basically based on the philosophical question of "If a tree falls in the forest, and nobody is around to hear it, does it make a sound?".""

Linus wrote that today on #lkml while detesting the whole notion of "ABI changes": lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-%3Dwg

To quote more: ""Pretty much any change can be an ABI change - even totally new interfaces change behavior in that something that didn't use to do anything now does something.

[…]

So I absolutely detest the whole notion of "ABI changes". It's a meaningless concept, and I hate it with a passion, because it then results in the "opposite" situation where some projects seem to think that ABI changes are perfectly fine as long as they go along with version number changes.

[…]

So the only thing that matters is if something breaks user-*conscious* behavior.""

And when that happens, the distinction between "bug fix" and "new feature" and "ABI change" matters not one whit, and the change needs to be done differently.

@Em0nM4stodon same, I really feel the approximate peak of modern technology in it's utility, ease of use, valued cost & lack of privacy invasions, was reached around 2000-2005 ACE. By then we had solid speech/talk to text software & hardware. Mobile phones, including smartphones were durable & had cameras or not depending on your preference. Similarly phones had GPS, & satellite or not. Screen readers were likewise fully developed.

Not everyone needs everything a piece of advanced technology & that's why I would love to see a renewed separation of different devices. Cheap mapping/direction GPS systems, separate from phones, separate from PDAs, separate from cameras.

Speed of doing every tech related task hasn't really changed for most people & if anything it's probably slower due to infrastructure decay.

*As I'm unfortunately continuing to consider which smartphone I should get over the next year & same for my spouse, it really hits me hard how it'd be better for us both if we could just get PDAs, his with a touchscreen & me with a physical keyboard that were 5g enabled. We don't make phone calls, nor answer them on the go & thusly don't need a mobile phone at all.

#465 Linear Regression vs. Logistic Regression

Thoughts: Not a very good article but the illustration is nice. Shows why drawing a straight line of best fit is an issue.

Can anyone confirm that in the new Linux Mint 22.3 the search menu no longer search for folders only files?
And if so how can we enable it as the "search files and folders" options is no longer available?

I know we can go back to the old menu with this applet cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/ but i wanted to avoid that

Interestingly a simple kWh/HDD regression for our full electricity imports fits reasonably well R^2>0.75) and gives a total year prediction close to that of our electricity supplier #Ecotricity partly because almost all imports are in winter for space heat...
